2013 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · KM13 AEO

The 2013 Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-02 confirming no defects at 94,370 miles. The vehicle has maintained consistent compliance over the past three years, with no recurring mechanical or structural issues recorded. Two failed MOTs in 2024 and 2023 at similar mileages (90,625 and 86,091) were noted without defects, suggesting potential administrative errors or non-critical failures not documented in the record. Overall, the trend indicates reliable maintenance, with no evidence of worsening conditions. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging 7,259 miles annually. The MOTs spaced approximately 12 months apart reflect regular servicing, with no significant gaps or rapid accumulation. The 94,370-mile reading is consistent with the car’s age, and the absence of high-mileage wear indicators—such as excessive brake disc thickness variation or suspension component failure—supports this. The record lacks anomalies, implying the previous owner prioritized routine checks, though no major repairs or replacements are evident. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The absence of recorded brake-related defects does not preclude a physical inspection for binding calipers or uneven disc wear, which may not trigger MOT failures. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as rust or corrosion in critical areas could compromise safety. While the MOT history shows no red flags, a hands-on evaluation of these systems is advisable to confirm the car’s continued reliability.
